Prepare to feel unwell in the best way possible because Matchbox Twenty are coming back to New Zealand for two massive shows.
The band last visited the country in 2008 but they’re finally returning to our shores for shows two in Christchurch and New Plymouth at the beginning of next year.
Known for hits such as 3am, She’s So Mean and How Far We’ve Come, the group of four are set to release a brand new album, Where The Light Goes later, this month – their first in 11 years – and the tour is a celebration of those new hit’s as well as a few performances of old favourites.
Touring with the Goo Goo Dolls, main man Rob Thomas said it feels “very comfortable” to be returning to the stage with the band after going solo and noted it feels like “such a privilege”.
In a statement released this morning, the star said: “It always feels comfortable if you dance with the date that you came with, and Matchbox Twenty is the date that I came with. Performing on stage with your mates that you’ve been in a band with for decades is such a privilege and it’s something we never take for granted, especially these days.
